A spinner has six sections of equal shape and size. Each section is either black or white. The table shows the result of an experiment when the spinner was spun 90 times:
Result of Spin Black White
Number of Spins 72 18


Based on the data, which of the following best describes the experimental probability of the arrow landing on a black or white section of the spinner?
The spinner is equally likely to land on black or white.
The spinner is 4 times more likely to land on white.
The spinner is 4 times more likely to land on black.
The information cannot be concluded from the data table.

Answer 1

It's 4 times black or white, from the table I cannot see which is which but it's black is 4 times more than white if black is 72 or vise versa

Answer 2

Answer:

The spinner is 4 times more likely to land on black.

Step-by-step explanation:

There were 72 black spins compared to 18 white spins.  This means there were 4 times more black spins than white spins; this means the spinner is not equally likely to land on either color.
